React Native 0.57+ supports the new WKWebView iOS component in
WebView instead of the legacy UIWebView..

The UIWebView component is deprecated since iOS 12
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiwebview

WKWebView is supported on iOS 8 and newer so that is not a concern.

An article on the WKWebView support in React Native here:

The change code-wise is trivial, but this needs thorough manual testing.
